Abstract: A mechanism is provided for authentication and authorization of an access to a resource by a device may be provided. The device may be a system-on-a-chip resource weak device. The mechanism forms a federation of a group of the devices in a neighborhood. The devices are wireless communication enabled. The mechanism builds a representational vector for each device of the federation of devices during an initial authentication procedure for the device. The representational vector comprises characteristic parameters of the device and neighboring devices. The mechanism uses an access token based authorization process for accessing the resource. The access token is generated during the initial authentication procedure, in which the representational vector of the device is used to confirm that a device that is new to the federation is in the neighborhood of already federated devices.

Abstract: A client system associated with a user includes at least one hardware processor configured to initiate the following operations. A modified login page is received from a proxy hardware system. An asynchronous engine is loaded by a browser system executing on the client system and caused by a routine from the modified login page. A login process with an authentication profiling service is executed, using the asynchronous engine, to retrieve login information for a back-end server. The authentication process with the back-end server is completed using the asynchronous engine. The modified logic page is generated by the proxy hardware system by adding the routine to a login page being sent from the back-end server to the browser.

Abstract: A login page is sent, by a backend server system, to a browser executing on a client associated with a user; and an authentication process is performed by the backend server system with the client. The logic page is intercepted by a proxy, and a modified logic page is generated by the proxy by adding a routine to the logic page. The modified logic page is forwarded to the browser, and the routine causes the browser to loads an asynchronous engine configured to execute a login process with an authentication profiling service to retrieve login information for the back-end server, and complete the authentication process.

Abstract: A codebook, comprising a number of groups of symbols in a predetermined pattern printed on a card or the like is issued to a user. The user is attributed or selects an extraction pattern representing an order of progression through the symbols in each group of symbols. When the user wishes to make an authentication action an authentication party challenges the user to submit the symbols found at selected positions in the extraction pattern. The user applies the extraction pattern to the codebook and retrieves the symbols found at the selected positions, and submits these to the authenticating party. The authenticating party applies the same extraction pattern to the same codebook, and determines whether the results match those submitted by the user, and in a case where the two sets of symbols match, authenticates the user.

Abstract: A proxy hardware system includes at least one processor configured to initiate and/or perform the following. A login page being sent to a browser executing on a client associated with a user from a back-end server is intercepted. A routine is added to the login page to generate a modified login page. The modified login page is forwarded to the browser. The browser, upon executing the routine, loads an asynchronous engine configured to execute a login process with an authentication profiling service to retrieve login information for the back-end server, and complete an authentication process with the back-end server.

Abstract: A method for establishing and maintaining a Single Sign-on between a reverse proxy and a back-end server can include instigating an authentication process through a browser for a user to obtain access to the back-end server, intercepting a login page from the back-end server at the reverse proxy and adding a routine thereto, thereby loading an asynchronous engine on the browser executing a login process with an authentication profiling service, in order to retrieve the login information for the back-end server, and completing the authentication process with the back-end to allow the user access the back-end server through the asynchronous engine.

Abstract: A method of route determination for mobile elements in a network comprising a plurality of paths each having a predetermined path capacity. The method comprises the steps of registering centrally a plurality of route requests from a corresponding plurality of mobile elements each of said requests defining a journey between an origin and a destination and registering centrally for each route request a journey start time. Routing instructions are centrally determined so as to optimise use of path capacity across all synchronous journeys requests in said network with reference to said registered information, and issued to corresponding mobile elements. The mobile elements adapt their route to comply with the routing instruction. There may be provided further steps of monitoring and rerouting the mobile element whenever new journeys requests can impact its remaining trip.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for implementing a collaborative search engine. A plurality of search tags associated with one or more search terms received from a client device associated with a user of a collaborative search engine are determined. A plurality of users of the collaborative search engine that are associated with information relevant to one or more of the search tags are identified. A time reference associated with the information associated with each of the users is determined. Search results are generated ranking the relevance of each of the plurality of users with respect to the search tags based, at least in part, on the relevance of the information associated with each of the users and the time reference associated with the information.
